Heat transfer coefficient 0.53-0.13 W/(m2∙K)
 * when the outer layers are even, this is the overall height of the panel (D);
on heavily profiled panels, this is the consistent core thickness without profile (dc)

Manufacturing process of the product:


The production of sandwich panels is on a continuously operating production line. Manufacture
begins by unwinding two galvanized steel coils. Self-adhesive film is added to outer facing
surfaces of the metal sheets to protect from scratches during production, handling and
transportation. The metal surface is then profiled by rolling dice according to product option.
Roll forming shapes the joint locks on the sides of the panel. Mineral wool bats are cut into
lamellas that are inserted between steel sheets after an adhesive layer is injected onto the
steel sheets. The necessary thickness is fixed while passing through the rotating steel plate
conveyor. The product is then cut to length in panels according to each order specification
thus minimizing cutting works and scraps produced on the construction site. Panels then
pass through a cooling section into an automatic stacking system. Afterwards panel stacks
are packaged for handling and transportation according to option chosen by the client.

Product processing/installation:
The sandwich panel stacks are unloaded at the job site using crane, forklift or front loader.
Panels are lifted into place using lifting equipment or manually and attached to the supporting
structure. The facing protective film should be removed before installation / finishing. Careful
planning limits cuts on the job site to a minimum.
The sandwich panels are fixed into place with fasteners in either pre-drilled holes or with self
drilling fasteners. For a weather tight building envelope, sealing foam, polyurethane insulation
materials, sealing tapes and steel details are used. Manufacturers of these auxiliary materials
and details are to produce the necessary EPDs.

Packaging:
Panels are shipped on EPS foam supports with additional EPS sheets and wrapped in stretch
wrap film to avoid handling and transportation damage and protect from the weather during
short-term storage. The packaging material is to be collected separately and recycled in
compliance with local regulations.

End of life:
The steel facing of the sandwich panels can be removed from the insulating core, collected,
and reused or recycled after dismantling. The mineral wool core can be collected and returned
to mineral wool producer for recycling in new mineral wool production or shredded for use
4 as loose fill insulation.

The following life cycle phases are part of the analysis:

Module A1-A3 | Production stage

EPD
The panels are produced using the following materials:
■ galvanized and painted steel sheet coils
■ backing film/filament tape made of HDPE attached to the steel sheet
■ mineral wool
■ polyurethane adhesive and adhesive hardener for bonding mineral wool with steel
sheets
■ EPDM joint gaskets and glue
■ standard packaging made up from EPS, stretch wrap and optional cargo straps and
spacer boards.
The production stage accounts for all upstream burdens of raw materials supply until panel
manufacturing including the transports to the production site in Dobele. The main inputs
include the organic coated steel sheets and the insulation material. Thermal energy is
provided by natural gas. Electrical energy is obtained directly from the Latvian electricity grid.

Module A4 | Transport
The transport from the plant in Dobele, Latvia to the customer is considered as a weighted
average based on a representative scenario. This includes truck transport over 360 km and
ship transport over 410 km transport distance.

Module C1 | Deconstruction, demolition


Disassembly of sandwich panels is done by means of cranes. The calculation for lifting by
crane results in an estimated energy demand of 0.2 MJ/m² of panel. Due to the comparable
small impact of the energy demand as well as a very large associated uncertainty in reality,
the referring energy demand is considered negligible and cut-off.

Module C2 | Transport
Module C2 includes the transport to waste treatment. In this case transport by truck (Truck-
trailer, Euro 5, 27t payload) over a transport distance of 50 km is assumed.

Module C3 | Waste processing


The steel sheet reaches Module D for recycling and leaves the product system in C3.
Environmental impacts from grinding and sorting of steel scrap are not included.
The materials can be separated, with the help of suitable tools at the construction site.
The separability was confirmed by an expert.

Module C4 | Disposal
The environmental impacts declared in module C4 reflect the landfilling of the mineral wool
insulation material and the recycling losses of the steel top layer.

Module D | Credits and loads beyond the system boundary


Module D describes the recycling of the steel sheet in the form of a European average scenario.

Time representativeness of data collection:
Foreground data were collected for the production year 2019. All data are based on annual
volumes.

EPD Database and LCA-software used:


This study uses generic background data for the evaluation of upstream environmental
impacts from GaBi databases (GaBi 10; data base version 2020.2).

Data quality:
Data collection is based on product specific questionnaires. It follows an iterative process
clarifying questions via e-mail, telephone calls or in web meetings. Intensive discussion
between TENAX and Daxner & Merl results in an accurate mapping of product related material
and energy flows. This leads to a high quality of foreground data collected. Data collection
relies on a consistent process considering the requirements of ISO 14044. The technological,
geographical and time-related representativeness of the database was kept in mind when
selecting background data. Whenever specific data were missing, either generic datasets or
representative average data were used instead.

Estimates and assumptions:


Assumptions and approximations are applied in case of a lack of representative data. All
assumptions and approximations are documented precisely and represent a best-guess
representation of reality. In case of uncertainty, a conservative approach is chosen.

Cut-off criteria:
The LCA model covers all available input and output flows, which can be represented based
on robust data. Data gaps are filled with conservative assumptions from average data (when
available) or with generic data and are documented accordingly. Only data with a contribution
lower 1 % were cut off. Thus, no data were neglected, of which a substantial impact is to
be expected. All relevant data were collected comprehensively. Cut-off material and energy
flows were chosen carefully based on their expected quantitative contribution as well as
potential environmental impacts. Thus, it can be assumed that the sum of all neglected input
flows does not account for more than 5 % of the total material, water and energy flows.

Allocation:
Upstream processes in the supply chain are mainly based on GaBi background data sets.

Background data for the supply chain of the organic coated steel are published by worldsteel
(latest publication). Representing an average of the global steel industry, worldsteel background
datasets ensure a good geographical and technological representation of steel production.
All worldsteel datasets are modelled according to the worldsteel LCA methodology, applying
the system expansion approach for the allocation of co-products from steel production.

All information for the allocation of given material and energy flows is based on the ERP-
systems of the entire production site. The calculation of thickness-specific amounts is based
on suitable allocation factors.
Steel scrap as well as waste insulation material is sent to recycling. Due to its minor
contribution to the overall revenue of the company, no co-product allocation is applied.
A certain share of the mineral wool waste is deposited and considered in the modelling
accordingly.

Interpretation:
The comparison of the panels’ life cycle phases shows a clear dominance of the production
phase (modules A1-A3). The environmental impacts in the production phase mainly result
from the supply chain of the purchased components.

Module A4 includes the transport of the product to a Scandinavian client representing a


minor share in the declared environmental indicators.

Environmental impacts in module C4 mainly refer to emissions from landfilling of the


insulation core made of mineral wool representing a minor fraction of the total environmental
impact of the panels.

As a result of material recyclability, the steel fraction removed at the end of life can substitute
primary steel. Module D shows the recycling potential of steel at the end of its product life.
Except for depletion potential of stratospheric ozone (ODP), this results in credits from the
substitution of primary steel.

Information on biogenic carbon content


The analysed product does not contain biogenic carbon. The carbon content of the wooden
pallet used as packaging material is calculated as carbon neutral in module A1-A3.
